Before first use
•Before using the toaster for the first time operate the toaster without bread. Note: the bread carriage lever › will not stay down unless the toaster is plugged in and the wall switch is on. Ventilate the room during this period.
•As with all new electric heating elements, your toaster emits a ‘new’ smell when it is first switched on. This is quite normal and not a cause for concern.

This setting is indicated on the front of the toaster by the blue LED. When the browning control is rotated away from the user the blue LED moves up the strip. At the very top it is on setting 9 and towards the bottom its on setting 1. The unit defaults to setting 3 when first plugged in.
